While with "NEXT LEVEL" she released "GREEN" and "Days" vs. "Rule" and "Sparkle".


Thank you. ^^ I wanted to write something along those lines as well.
I think it's just recently that we have informations as to the recording process. Since "Secret", I'd say? We don't really know how busy she was during the other albums. Maybe your favourite is the most "rushed". Who knows? I wonder, do people actually HEAR that the seemingly rushed albums are "rushed"? Because it does seem as if some people are giving themselves excuses to not liking something (though one doesn't have to feel sorry about liking or not liking something). ayu did say herself during the TIME Asia interview that even if she's got 1 month, she starts doing the work during the last 3 days.
Yea this i agree. I listen to LOVEppears and I am... and I feel like the techno vibe is present in most of the CD (for I am...'s case its kinda the front portion but it really flows)...

She NEEDS them to make a good album. *imagines Kingdom...>.< (i really dont like the flow..but I love Kuu)*

anyway...LET'S NOT FORGET ARE YOU WAKE UP? and tasking!!!...they are one of the best interludes ever too.

anyway, LOVE 'n' HATE is reallly really that good huh? hahah..i cant wait to hear previews...
(i wonder if that ayuchina guy is gonna record his super-early cd and then compile the songs again...like he did for GUILTY. I know many people hated that his voice was present but i appreciate his effort and the verse+chorus previews made me love GUILTY even more...esp the interludes..because he didnt just let us hear the 'surprise' in the interludes..)
